I went to A yard sale . I asked If he had any coleman lanterns . He said maybe in the barn - I spotted this on a shelf . I asked if it was for sale . He was hesitant at first , He said $5.00 - I pointed out the damage to the skin . offered him $3.00 , he said no . As I was leaving , he said , How about $2.00 , I said yes .

I was worried my GF would not like it when i brought it home , She said OMG my Father had one just like it Cept it had pontoons . He was a fisherman & he used it direct boats to where the tuna , schools of bait fish , pogies . etc . back in the 60's & 70's .

She had me put it on our ''Memory '' Chandelier , above the dinning room table .

Nice garage sale find for a great price. Congrats
 

The Plane has a fake motor , no elastic band Tec . Just a wall hanger .
 

Cool vintage plane model. You offer $3 then he refuses. As you walked away he counters with $2. go figure??
 

Way too cool. My buddy just sold his real plane that looked similar to that....except it was uglier...lol
 

Nice finds, congratulations! :icon_thumleft:
